Rajaniemi Fiction Online

Subterranean Press has published a short story Elegy for a Young Elk by Hannu Rajaniemi on their web site. It’s been a while since I read that story, but I liked it a lot:
[…]my absolute favorite this year, Elegia nuorelle hirvelle by Hannu Rajaniemi. A splendid mix of post-singularity feel and traditional Finnish elements, this story would make an excellent representative of Finnish sf also abroad.
Isn’t it nice when one’s wishes come true?

The story came second in the Atorox vote for the best Finnish sf short story originally published in 2006. Go take a look!
